“As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds his people both now and forevermore.”
Psalms 125:2
God assures us of His protection and comfort. The strength of assurance is a joy to read. It’s a great blessing to see this promise come true. In the journies, in projects, in consumptions, in partnerships, in learning right, in solitude, also in the seeming little things of a morning rise. We have to constantly revert to the depth of this promise as if reminding God, to keep His bargain, and He has done, does and will. His precise words are, as the mountains provide a fortress and buffer, so God is able to shield when we pray to Him. Dear God, give us breathing space from the wicked, make our homes impregnable, grant us grace to see doers of evil from a distance and flee and repel their works. And should we err and not take preferred instructions may your intervening grace help us. In all may Christ be praised. Amen.
God bless.
Evangelist Israel Okunwaye
